I think this is a pretty great tree for the price. It was easy to put together. It only took me about a half hour. It’s very sturdy, but it comes with a way to attach it to the wall just in case you feel better that way. The only cons are that the little hammock is kind of small for my 15 pound cats, but they don’t seem to mind and curl up in it anyway and I wish the sisal rope extended all the way up ￼on the posts. I noticed the cats are stretching the material near the top instead of the sisal. All in all, if you’re on a budget, this is a great little tree.
